Creeva’s World 2.0

When I first saw Amer­i­can Psy­cho 2 at the store, I went this must be so cool — it’s a sequel to Amer­i­can Psy­cho how could it be bad.   Well I wouldn’t say it’s the worst movie I’ve ever seen, it’s not a wor­thy suc­ces­sor to the orig­i­nal.  Mila Kunis (that chick from “That 70’s Show”) plays the lead killer in this movie.   I’m sorry but she can come even within 10 per­cent of the qual­ity that Chris­t­ian Bale brought to the orig­i­nal movie.   The movie kind of drags on and I can say that this style of movie is not the best vehi­cle for Kunis. 

I’m sure they could have picked worse actresses so I won’t say the film is entirely her fault.   The link between this movie and hte orig­i­nal is that Kunis’s char­ac­ter had a babysit­ter that dated and was attacked by Patrick Bate­man in front of her.  She stabs Bate­man — fast for­ward a few years until she is in col­lege.   She study­ing crim­i­nol­ogy and even­tu­ally becomes a killer.   Gone are the nuances of the orig­i­nal.  The won­der­ing if it was all in her head or real.  This is a straight up B movie slasher film.   It dis­cred­its the orig­i­nal by hav­ing the link and the title it shares.
